5-1 Odds for Kentucky Canter
NEW YORK, April 25-CP)-At a result of his victory In the
Wood Memorial stakes at Jamaica Saturday, Texas Ben Whitaker's
Requested immediately was made the 4 to 1 future book favorite
for next Saturday's Kentucky derby by Betting Commissioner
Frank Shannon. -
The previous choke, Al Sabath's Alsab, already at Churchill
Downs, dropped to second choice at 5 to 1, alone with Mrs. Payne
Whitney's Devil Diver.

which saw an almost-forgotten outsider nearly upset the apple

than ever.
For not only did the little
Texas-owned son of Question
naire hold his lead all the way
around to climb right up front
and center again for CoL Matt
Winn's bit party, but the highly-regarded
Apache, who was
touted as a "food thine" to rive
Owner William Woodward and
Trainer Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons
their fourth derby winner, faded
like last week's daffodils on the
way home and staggered in
third, three lengths off the pace.
Just as astonishing to a crowd
f 36,785 cash customers, who
poured $1,822,832 into Jamaica's
mutuel machines for a new Amer
ican record for a seven-race-card,
was the finish put on by Bleu
d'Or, a sleek colt from the barn
of the automobile man, Walter P.
Chrysler, jr. Given a crack ride
by Don Meade, this 22-1 shot came
like a bullet along the rail in the
stretch to just miss catching the
Jront-running requested and
Stealing the whole winner's pot
of $22,900.
Wayne Wright, part of the
120-pound load on Requested,
was so interested in the duel
with Apache, he almost over
looked Meade and Bleu d'Or
gliding along the rail. As a re
sult, requested just bobbed his
head at the right time to hang
Ids nose on the wire in Ali,
a new record for the stake.
Requested, winner of Hialeah's
Flamingo stakes earlier this win
ter, returned his supporters $11.40
for each $2 win ticket Bleu d'Or
was $16.40 for place and Apache,
knocked down to $1.75 to $1 to
win, paid only $2.90 for show.
